A mother who was diagnosed with the fourth stage of cervical cancer, doctors said her symptoms of blood clots were “only your period”.
Charley Jayne Law, 31, start clotting the bleeding of her “palms”, but was fired by male doctors on numerous visits to a hospital in London over two months.
She eventually referred to gynecology at King’s College Hospital and was diagnosed on January 27, 2025, after a number of blood tests, transfusions and iron tests.
Charley was so unclear that it had to be admitted as a hospital and had to make the difficult decision to put her children into the emergency guardian.
Now at the Guy Cancer Center she has been told that her cancer is incurable but treatable and is building strength – after falling from 168 lbs to 98 lbs – so that it can start chemotherapy.
Charley, a full -time mother from Sydenham, London, said: “I was bleeding the clotting of my palms. I followed the hospital several times between September and December 2024 and was phubbed with “just your period” by many male doctors who did not even do the basis of an exam.
“The news on January 27 ripped my world.
“My body was on the verge of giving up because all the time when I was still a mother. I was still running at school, I was still dealing with my baby from my work, housework, appointments and scans, and everything in the middle – Despite the beggars for help from social services, children’s school and anyone.
“I had to make the most difficult decision to set my children who have never been far from my mom, not even for one night in the emergency custody. Why?
“The mother’s fault was so bad, but I knew that if I didn’t go to the hospital I wouldn’t be here the next day.”
Charley said when she finally received a proper examination, she knew something was wrong immediately.
The mother said: “She referred me to Gynecology Kings College and I entered January 16, 2025.
“The moment she did the exam, not even 10 seconds in her, I know she had something seriously wrong – she had a really bad poker face.
“The gynecologist brought a specialist who introduced himself as Lucy, a Macmillan nurse.
“My heart drowned.”
Charley is slowly gaining weight and hoping to start chemotherapy in the coming weeks, but says her children are trying to understand why she can’t get home.
She said: “Both of my sons have extra need, which makes this ten times more difficult as they fight to find out why my mother just can’t get home.
“And my daughter is still a kid who wants her mother.
“Throughout this, my children have been my absolute rocks and light in the dark.
“They have had their entire world because they know it is upside down, but they have been amazing and I want to be able to make as many memories with them, take as many pictures and videos as they can look back when I’m not here possible. “
A fund was created by a family member, Julie Mullan, with the funds heading to a holiday for Charley and her children to allow them to have “memories of return”.
Julie, 47, from Sidcup, said: “She is destroyed.
“All she is saying at the moment is that she wants to stay alive as long as possible for her babies.
“All we want to do this funds is to allow her to make memories of her and her children.
“We just want to take them on vacation and allow them to be able to do things.
“She doesn’t want her children to think they have abandoned them.”
